EP:5

The temptation of the noose is just burning Essi up from the inside out. The feeling of finally being able to die. It almost brings a smile to Essi's face. But he knows he made a promise he has to go to the mall just to make Zero happy. She's the only person who has ever paid attention to him. But then again she also doesn't know his past life. Essi has never been the most popular kid at school always getting bullied mainly for the lack of a father and mother in his life. When the word about that got around the school Essi became the least popular kid in school. The day ends with Essi adding another pill to his system. When he woke up the time was 6:20. Essi slept in he didn't have time to get ready. So he just threw on a outfit which consisted on grey sweat pants a green polo shirt and a black hoodie. As Essi walked out of the house. The swift breeze of the air passes his nose and makes him shiver with cold. The first thing that comes to his mind is what is Zero gonna be wearing at the mall probably just a casual getup nothing special. When the sun peaks Essi arrives inside the mall and starts looking for Zero. After a few minutes of looking he just goes to the food market. When he enters the food market he sees her in full makeup and a nice outfit. Normal Black and Grey shoes with thigh high socks. A skirt on and a grey jacket with a white shirt under it. When they meet up Essi says

Essi: So why the fancy getup this isn't a date

Zero: Well you dont know that.

Essi: Just dont make it that I have enough problems already
